Just
Just, the expression 'just' denotes equitability, fairness and reasonableness, and non arbitrary. If it is not so it cannot be just (See Helen C. Rebello v. Maharashtra State Road Transport Corporation, AIR 1998 SC 3191), Divisional Controller KSTRC v. Mahadeva Shetty, AIR 2003 SC 4172 (4177): (2003) 7 SCC 197. (Motor Vehicles Act, 1988, s. 163A and Schedule II)The word 'just' as its nomenclature, denotes equit-ability, fairness and reasonableness having large peripheral field. The largeness is, of course, not arbitrary; it is restricted by the conscience which is fair, reasonable and equitable, if it exceeds; it is termed as unfair, unreasonable, inequitable not just. In Law Lexicon, 5th Edn., by T.P. Mukherjee 'Just' is described:The term just' is derived from the latin word Justus. It has various meanings and its meaning is often governed by the context. 'Just' may apply in nearly all of its senses, either to ethics or law, denoting something which is morally right and fair and some...

Hindu
Hindu, The historical and etymological genesis of the word 'Hindu' has given rise to a controversy amongst ideologists; but the view generally accepted by scholars appears to be that the word 'Hindu' is derived from the river Sindhu otherwise known as Indus which flows from the Punjab. 'That part of the great Aryan race', says Monier Williams, 'which immigrated from Central Asia, through the mountain passes into India, settled first in the districts near the river Sindhu (now called the Indus). The Persians pronounced this word Hindu and named their Aryan brethren Hindus. The Greeks, who probably gained their first ideas of India from the Persians, dropped the hard aspirate, and called the Hindus 'Indoi'. ('Hindulsm' by Monler Williams, p.1.)'. The Encyclopedia of Religion and Ethics, Vol. VI, has described 'Hinduism' as the title applied to that form of religion which prevails among the vast majority of the present population of the Indian Empire (p. 686). As Dr. Radhakrishnan has obs...
Premium and rent
Premium and rent, when the interest of the lessor is parted with for a price paid is premium or salami. But the periodical payments made for the continuous enjoyment of the benefits under the lease are in the nature of rent. The former is a capital income and the latter a revenue receipt. There may be circumstances where the parties may camouflage the real nature of the transaction by using clever phraseology. In some cases, the so-called premium is in fact advance rent and in others rent is deferred price. It is not the form but the substance of the transaction that matters. The nomenclature used may not be decisive or con-clusive but it helps the Court, having regard to the other circumstances, to ascertain the intention of the parties, CIT v. Panbori Tea Co. Ltd., AIR 1965 SC 1871 (1873): (1965) 3 SCR 811. [T.P. Act, 1882, s. 105]...
